Prerequisites - ASL 103 is the third quarter of ASL instruction at Seattle Central and/or Shoreline Community College.  To be eligible for ASL 103 you must meet one of the following conditions:(1) successful completion of ASL 102 with a 2.0 grade or better; (2) completion of an equivalent ASL course at another campus; (3) demonstration of an equivalent proficiency at the beginning ASL 103 level; or (4) permission of the instructor.

Course Description - the focus of this course is on the expressive manipulation of the language in dialogues and narratives.  We continue to examine the grammatical features of the language including verb inflections, compound sentences, and relative clauses.  We attend to non-manual features including non-manual grammatical signals, and prosodic features of intensity and characterization.  We examine the Deaf community by exploring families with Deaf children, and we also further explore the Deaf-Blind community in Seattle.
